Today I will share some information about Sichuan Province's travelling with you. Sichuan Province, whose capital is Chengdu, lies in the southwest of China and covers an area of about 485,000 square kilometers. [1]
It is rich in tourist attractions and enjoys many worldfamous places of interest, such as Jiuzhaigou Valley and the Dujiangyan Irrigation Project. Jiuzhaigou Valley is wellknown for its beautiful lakes, whose water is so clear that you can see the bottom of them. [2] Another attraction is the Dujiangyan Irrigation Project, which was built over 2,000 years ago and is still playing a part in irrigation today. [3]
In a word,the nice weather, convenient transportation and a variety of famous hot food can also make your trip even more enjoyable.

Dear Tom,
It is nice to receive your email. Now I'd like to tell you something about the Palace Museum.
The Palace Museum, also called the Forbidden City took nearly 14 years to build and was completed in 1420. As the largest museum in China, the Palace Museum holds cultural treasures from the past thousands of years of Chinese history, it has 9,999 rooms altogether because nine is traditionally considered as a lucky number by Chinese people. High school students from all over China now can visit it in groups free of charge every Tuesday.
I do hope you can come to China and take a look at this museum with your own eyes. Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
